heck you can probably get one from MF new and just as cheep if you just need a guest guitar. Congrats on your 12, I just got my NGD last month and love it! Tuning down a half step is less "tinny" sounding on the high strings and less stress on the neck and bridge. I have found that you need standard tuning for most of Gordon Lightfoot's stuff and a good capo. Im using a standard capo,, but want one for a 12 It will mute the strings better.
Enjoy your 12!
just found this band today,,, its heavy with a classical twist and a great singer,, So hey all you old farts 
give it a full chance.
He was also KINGPEN in Dare Devil and played Bear in Armageddon

I've never liked fighting crowds over the holidays so I'll spend Friday night and Saturday at home watching college football, attend a friend's birthday party Saturday night, attend my bro-in-law's annual Labor Day cookout on Sunday, chill out at home on Monday then spend Tuesday-Thursday on a fishing trip in WV with my son and one of my old paddling friends.
Where in WV? I was born there and lived there till I was 15.

Not a very obscure band,, but one song taht most people have forgotten. One of my favorites.
OK, I follow you beamer. Here's a mellow little tune from an obscure band I have never heard of.

What do you guys have on the sked?
Sat the family are going to see a Coll football game (Hardin–Simmons University Tx) My daughters BF is one of the few Freshman who made the varcity team. So we going to watch him get tossed around! 
Sun and monday,,, I got a date with a 73 Super Beatle LOLOL gonna be a BONDO and ORBITAL SANDER king! lololol
Would like to fit in some skype either evening if possible.
Have fun and be safe out there!
Pete RAM is always good. Since your getting that note,,, you really have too much in your C drive. Move more stuff to that external you said you have. Get C as clean as possible this way.
I have noticed lately that at odd times of the very early morning, skype will tell me an individual is online,, I know at 3AM central, that My friend is not up. I even asked him the next day. so why would skype be getting the idea that someone is on when he is not?
I thought maybe it was because someone in Pat's family may have been on his computer,, but that was not the case either.
Ok well thanks 
Anyone watch the 70s one yet?
I never caught on to slapping, but I was taught how to do it. I can show him the positions, but it will be up to him to figure it out from there.
I was using that as a toung in cheek expression ;-)
Maybe we can work out a time for the three of us to sit down at teh computer.
I have a few of these on VHS. the one b4 this is posted on the side board,, check out THE 70'S Have a niceDecade.

some more legs diamond.
I have 5 folders under one big one. main one is called ALT music file. one file is all the stuff I have bought as direct down loads, another one is a file of music all from one guy at work and so is another file. ect.
As far as organizing it,,, I let Windows Media player find all and take care of it. I used to use media monkey,, but then they went and "upgraded" to a version that might as well be I-tunes. (I hate I tunes) and so I have been forced to go back to WMP. But shoot, even in your files all the albums /grupes will have their own file and all be alphabitized. If you have tones of loose mp3s WMP or a program like it might be your best bet. you might likethe new media monkey its free for basic. and while looking I saw one called song bird that looks like media monkey USED to look like. I think ill try that one tonight ok I hope this helps
Dino,,yep I have the one America that most of us have. Greatest hits. I almost played sandman the other night. I like to playit with Dist on my SG. It really transitions well. I am pretty sure youll never hear Muskrat love out of my guitar though LOLOL.
zurf you mised it getting done while you were putting your girl to bed.
After the Jam the other night, I had to go to the chordie search. I printed out
Sundown( after it was done, I have to try it out), and Baby Step back. its going to be tough to get the rythm going right but Ill try it. and Alberta Bound. Good songs for the 12 string.
(and for my hard side i printed a bunch of Betty Blowtorch! HAHAHAHAHAHAH )
I was thinking of "This old guitar" by John Denver. It is really a story that fits my relationship with my Ovation. Maybe,,, Ill see how hard it will be.
Hmmmm? is this for real? oh well its cool and a great song! LOLOL
Pete the whole distracted driver and lack of giving a Sh!t is worse now than ever. I remember even b4 all the electronics,, I would see ppl reading the paper or a book as they cruised down the road.
Being a guy on a motorcycle, this scares the crap outta me everytime I get on the road.
I have what I call and my bike forum buddies agree, to be a good attitude, its called Aggressive / Defencive. Im not trying to piss anyone off, but Im not letting them push me around either. It happens, but as long as Im of the mind set that I am everyones moving target, it keeps me ahead of the fools.,,,, So far. Ive been down 2 times, both minor thank god, I like to think that by having a good respect for the dangers and two bike safety courses (basic and experienced) it helps me to stay alive. KNOCK ON WOOD.
All I do are slow and steady riffs on blues scales. As far as I'm concerned, the only thing you need to know about bass for rock, country, or blues, is which scale to use, where the 1, 3, and 5 notes are for each chord (or flatted third for blues) and be sure to be on the root note of the current chord on 1 and 3 for common time or on 1 for waltz time.
If you'd like for me to encourage him on that, I'd be happy to do it, but I really don't think of myself as an instructor. Given that I haven't had a bass on a stage since my youngest was born seven years ago, I'm not even sure I count as a bass player any more.

Well you got me beat! LOLOLOL espically talking about 1, 3, and 5's! for what ever reason I just can not get my head around it! it must be so simple that it eludes me. but yea I would love for you to encourage him and show him the correct way to play the scales.
You know how it is, funner to learn from one who is not your parent (we dont know anything , do we LOLOLOL). But I think he would be receptive and get a kick out of it. I think he really wants to do it. he just wants to (like many starters) be great and be "slapping the bass" from the get go.
